    Cotto winning? I though the majority of people on here agreed he would be ko'ed/TKO'ed in the late rounds do to his lack of stamina?

      Floyd was overtrained, and he did box with cotto. He tried but he looked sloppy and washed up. He had to lay on the ropes because he punched himself out after the 5th round. And he actually used movement in the final round. But he got outboxed and outslicked in some rounds too.

        JUDAH! I always thought southpaws with insane hand speed and punching power would give floyd fits. I still feel if zab had more heart in yhe floyd fight like he did with danny he had a major chance of beating him.

        If khan didn't have such a glass chin I could see him pullinh off the upset. Buy since his defense sucks and noy the chin to counter iy, I only see him winning 3 or 4 rounds.

          ireally would have put the house on hatton

          he has good speed decent power but his great footwork and body work had me thinking he could take the fight cortez kinda ruined all hope for ricky but i still think floyd would have found a way to win no matter the ref
          he beat hatton at his own game lol
          credit to floyd he beat the best hatton there was guy was a pure beast

            of course he was, he was fighting Cottos fight....let me ask you do you think if floyd fought cotto the same way he fought Canelo would cotto "out box" him ?

                I gave Oscar the best chance, followed by Canelo, then Mosley. The only fighter I gave literally a zero percent chance was to Guerrero. I've never liked his style and never saw anything special in him.

                EDIT: I actually gave Cotto a better chance than Canelo and Mosley. Forgot about him lol

                  I thought Zab had the best chance of beating Floyd. Based on everything SMS mentioned in his post. Plus, I've always been a big Judah fan. Zab definitley had the physical tools to get the job done.
